    OMG!

    I LOVE them! They are fab and would be amazing as favours (especially as my parents live in Blackpool and I can bring a bit of the North into my wedding!)

    I just wonder how long the rock lasts cos the Mr and Mrs rock is a pound cheaper and well, we are money savers after all! ;)

    I just wonder if I could sneak them onto the tables without the OH knowing as he's against favours as he doesn't understand why we're giving guests a gift when we're the ones getting married! :rotfl:

    I've been Money Tipped!
    There are lots of companies that will do customised sticks of rock - you can have it made in whatever colours/flavour you want and choose the message inside too. I used to coordinate events and had some made up once which was a real hit and great value for money. The producers said as a rule of thumb it'll keep for 6 months (stored in a cool, dry place).
    Common sense?...There's nothing common about sense!

    They could be double mummy! Ooooh I want them... Have shown my chief bridesmaid and she agrees that they are amazing... Tho I'm thinking if I visit home and find out how much individually wrapped rock is, it might work out cheaper and hopefully they'll do them in navy or blue... :D

    Can you recommend any companies browneyedbazzi? I'm looking to money saving cheapness then at least the OH won't complain too much! Tho he did say it would be a nice touch...

    I contacted the company and they said the best before date on their current batch is July 2012...

    I just like them cause they come in green and my colour scheme is Jade green and ivory and its hard to find good value green sweets that look nice. There is some other good value stuff on the site too xx
